Swetha Vangaveti Poet Rhyme

Lessons From the Jungle

Animals animals all we are
Have come from the jungle that's oh so far!
Happily happily we came dancing here
With many lessons that you all have to hear.

I am the ferocious lion king
The song of Valour is what I sing
Never take a step back in times of peril
Be always a man of pride and virile.

I am the mighty elephant here
I do have an empathetic ear
It's always good to stay grounded
Family turns your life fulfilled.

I'm the little squirrel in the burrow
Unfailingly active in every high and low
Vigilance and resilience are my innate traits
Your effort, I say, opens all the gates.

I am the restless naughty monkey
I am ingenious and witty
Fun and mischief are so vital
In a serious lifestyle for a quick revival. 

I am the curious cub of the bear
My mom is so strict and fair
She taught me the way to make an owlish choice
And to always listen to the clever mind voice. 

Animals animals all we are
Have come from the forest that's oh so far!
Oh dear humans! You're the best of all
Live and let live breaking the wall.

Gershon Wolf January 30, 2019 at 4:04 PM So wise, witty, and rhythmical … The Sages of old noted that we learn cleanliness from the cat, industriousness from the ant, kindness from the stork, etc. You have now joined their ranks in wisdom---but not in age, OF COURSE. Best wishes, Gershon Swetha Vangaveti February 1, 2019 at 12:21 AM Your words mean a lot Thanks again for your encouraging words. :)
